The Rayzen material library includes data from major material suppliers, encompassing common optical materials such as glass, metals, and plastics. It is updated annually to provide users with convenient and accurate material selections. Users can choose optical component materials from the library suitable for their designs without manually entering multifarious data.
Since the optical properties of the same material may vary slightly depending on its application and manufacturing process, once users select an appropriate material from the library, they should add it as an instantiated material in the project. This allows them to adjust the optical property values based on specific applications or manufacturing processes for a more accurate simulation of the material’s behavior in actual systems.
